[first lines]
Jonathan Coulton : [playing guitar on a cement bench] Once the end was coming / Now at last the end is here / Ella's dead but at least there's not / A space bug in her ear / Looks like Red is finally feeling better / Luke's all fired up and lean and mean
[a pedestrian drops a dollar in Jonathan's cup. Jonathan stops, pulls the bill out of his coffee, gets up and walks to the brownstone, playing]
Jonathan Coulton : Gareth's glad that Laurel said / She'll stay and see it through / She tells Rochelle and Gustav / That she knows just what to do / While they scheme the clock is ticking / Here in this fair brownstone / Where we lay our scene.
[strumming continues as the camera moves in to the window]
Laurel Healy : I know what their plan is, and I think I know how to stop it.
Rochelle Daudier : Okay.
Laurel Healy : 38 days. Their countdown clock said 38 days. I knew it sounded familiar.
Gareth Ritter : War. 38 days to start war.
Laurel Healy : No, the war was a distraction. The internment camps were a distraction: they were never for internment. They were hothouses.
Rochelle Daudier : A distraction from what?
Gareth Ritter : Shhh...
[Gareth moves to the window, looks out]
Gareth Ritter : Tsk. Oh God.
[Gareth knocks on the window frame. Jonathan stops playing. Gareth gestures, and Jonathan leaves]
Rochelle Daudier : A distraction from what?
Laurel Healy : Cherry blossoms.
